I have a very simple shape, a box, and I would like that box to unfold like a cube, square and simply, and "Unfold" Feels like its going out of it's way to Cause me distress This is a super simple… -
Re: Maya - Bevel using control edges possible?
I always did this type of rounded bevel with the spin tool in Blender. I've also been looking for the equivalent in Maya but so far the closest I've come across is 'edit mesh > wedge'. I hate that it's the one tool you have to be in multi mode to use, also you have to delete the extra faces afterwards :/ -

Migrating from MODO to Maya. Couple questions
Overall the programs are pretty similar but a couple things irk me. If it isn't achievable in Maya maybe there are plugins which do these? * Is there a way to replace marquee tool with lasso (and still be able to select by clicking) * Is there something that makes deleting components easier?

The original model files are long gone, but I've been able to extract the mesh and skeleton data, along with all existing animations from the game files. I'm trying to set up a rig in Maya so that I can start adding some new… -
Re: Maya with Vista, crashing on high-poly meshes (500k+)
I think the important thing to know here is what graphics card you're using, MM. In my experience, more RAM doesn't actually make Maya any more stable when it comes to viewport issues. I've tried importing the same 2-million triangle model on various machines (Vista, XP, 64-bit, 32-bit, some with 2gb RAM, some with 4gb… -
Re: crease from 3d max in maya
Creasing is a great way to do sub-d but you still need to add control loops to fully take advantage. The downside is that the creasing isn't always transferable between software. I'm not sure how you do it in Maya. I think you create edge selection sets and adjust the crease weight in the attribute editor. Or maybe it has… -
Blendshape Issues - Exporting from Maya into Zbrush then back into Maya
To jump right into it I've been having problems with the transforms of my blendshape heads after importing them into Maya after dealing with the duplicate in Zbrush. They get really deformed when I try to apply blendshapes. I know it's the transforms of the imported object but I'm a little flummoxed about how I would go…
